Basic Lubrication
If this machine is used in a heavy industrial
setting, or in a dirty or damp environment,
increase the oil-change intervals.
If the machine is new or being put back into
service from storage, you must first to flush the
lubrication system with ATF Dextron II. Run the
pump for 5-10 minutes, and move all handwheels
through their full range of motion as the high
detergent oil breaks down and flushes away
storage grease from the bearings, ways, and
galleys. When finished, drain and refill the oil
system, and conduct a test run as outlined in this
manual.
To lubricate your machine:
1. Read and take the appropriate safety
measures covered in this manual.
2. Remove the screws and the left-side cabinet
access plate, and fill the oil reservoir or
replace the oil if it is dirty (see Figure 44).
Figure 44. Lubrication pump and reservoir.
3. Make sure the pinion gears and leadscrew
(Figure 45) are wet with oil.
